Hi Guys,

Im new to smartsheet , please help me. I created an approval workflow then if the approver is not around how I am going to reassign it to other approver without breaking the approval sequence.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thank you very much.

Is it set to allow for multiple selections? If so, reports cannot group by that. The only way to get it to work on a dropdown column is if it is set as a single select.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":106835,"type":"question","name":"Can I use Form collected Data to Pre-populate another form?","excerpt":"I have created a Credit App for our company...

It depends on your automation settings. If you set it to unrestricted, you can send to an email address in a cell without giving them access to the sheet.

  • All columns aren't showing up for Grouping in Reports

    I'm pretty new to Smartsheet and can't figure out what I am doing wrong here. I am trying to Group by the "PM" column but it's not showing up in the list. It's formatted as a dropdown, but other columns that are appearing on the list are formatted the same way. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

  • Can I use Form collected Data to Pre-populate another form?

    I have created a Credit App for our company... The form works great for collection of data. Once I have the data though, we need to follow up with Credit References, etc. What I would like to do is have a new form that is sent to someone to follow up with each of the references provided by our customers. What I would love…
